A Perfect Circle - Sleeping Beauty Lyrics

Artist: A Perfect Circle

Album: Mer De Noms (edited)

  • Songwriters: William Howerdel, Maynard Keenan

In-delusional, I believed, I could cure it all for you, dear
Coax or trick or drive or drag the demons from you
Make it right for you, sleeping beauty
Truly thought I could magically heal you

We're far beyond a visible sign of your awakening
I'm failing miserably to rescue, sleeping beauty

Drunk on ego, truly thought I could make it right
If I kissed you one more time to help you face the nightmare
But you're far too poisoned for me
Such a fool to think that I could wake you from your slumber
That I could actually heal you

Sleeping beauty, poisoned and hopeless

We're far beyond a visible sign of your awakening
Failing miserably to find a way to comfort you

Far beyond a visible sign of your awakening
Hiding from some poisoned memory

You're poisoned and hopeless, sleeping beauty
